why would it be any disadvantage at all? Players with big bucks should be able to do more than new players. That's the motivation to keep playing and amass wealth.
Why are we making the millions of credits if we can't spend them? I have 20 million credits I don't have any use for yet. I want my own fleet, and my own station, and my own planet. I want to be able to loan money to people and send enforcers to make their lives miserable when they don't pay up. ...but I digress...
